About this Cook
I'm an administrative assistant in a neurologist's office. Married for 34 years and have a 25 yo daughter who is back at home. We have lived in Florida for nearly 30 years. My husband works for a national wholesale foodservice company so it is fun to have him in the kitchen with me.
My favorite things to cook
I'm pretty adventurous...can't say that I have one favorite thing. Nothing like comfort food....a good roast or meatloaf. Not heavily into BBQ or Chinese!
My favorite family cooking traditions
My father was born in Copenhagen, Denmark, so I try to keep those Scandinavian traditions alive. Red cabbage, frikadilla, pork roast. Danish cookies (kleiner)
My cooking triumphs
Our annual Christmas party for about 40 people when we cook all the food (appetizers, salads, meat, cookies, desserts) ourselves. Not to mention favors, drinks etc.
My cooking tragedies
hmmm.....they must be WAaaaY back in my memory bank.

Cheddar Cauliflower Quiche
This was a different twist on a quiche. We used refrigerated pie crust to save time. Toast the nuts in the microwave and don't overcook the cauliflower; it will cook more in the oven.

Cajun Crab Soup
Overall excellent; I think I will thicken it a little more next time. Good with a splash of sherry on the top. Just enough heat.

Peppered Bacon and Tomato Linguine
Very simple but excellent. Had a hard time finding peppered bacon but finally got some at Wal-Mart. I did double the tomatoes and used Italian style. Also used regular onions, about 1/2 cup chopped. Added 3/4 c. half and half.
